last weeks firing of stoneware bowls …slightly different shape of tiny bowls (pips, olives, chilly sauce…) to fit around large bowls for maximum use of kiln shelf space…
nest of bowls
porcelain and cobalt
light and shadow
musing while using cobalt washes on porcelain pieces about how to
maybe work with a flat surface, canvas or wood…with brushes and real paint…
so canvases of about a meter square have proved a liberating change of pace (while waiting for clay to dry )
2022 in the studio
continuing with porcelain thrown forms and cobalt oxide brushwork…. this week pushing to try these ideas on a canvas with acrylic paints…. loving the physical energy of making marks.
studio still life today
cups running over ?
love a pile of cups, blue and white, porcelain, spots and clouds…..some lovely versions of
happy birthday sung a few days ago by biggies and littlies have given
my batteries a charge ….
the kiln is on and i’m ready to go!!!
stoneware platter
platters and plates, stoneware gives such lovely surfaces to present food, the texture and colour of the clay gives an earthy ‘stoneyness’ that adds and reflects all the deliciousness of shared food platters from cheese to fruit to seafood or meats….mmmm what time is it?
small bowls
porcelain bowls and cobalt markings, glazed inside, some outside,wax resist.
STONEware jars
enjoying so much the interaction between clay body and glaze …the earthiness/stoniness of the surface….oxidised mattwhite glaze over Keanes stoneware 33.
fish tiles
porcelain tiles 15 x15 cm…painted with cobalt lines and washes…
coastal theme for a client.
